This is all you'll be getting until my computer with my 20+ story files is fixed. 8K. Also, weirdish Creek with some Cartman in it. I dunno. It just came out of nowhere.

Xenophobic.

I am scared.

Scared of so many sights and sounds

Around me, that shriek in the night

When I cannot feel

I am frightened.

When you disappear, sometimes for just a little while

Before my grotesque nightmares begin once more

And I wait, white-knuckled

For that shadow on the wall might be you

Or some other folly of my mind—

I am angered;

Though there are some emotions I can never show

When he touches me

(Maybe for some blond fetish, as I have seen behind school walls before)

Horrified of what he thinks

And what you would think of me.

I do not understand

(Or maybe people do not understand me)

As people pass me by and stare

While I wonder if they know, or if you know

Sometimes you ask me what is wrong

And I tell you nothing

Because I do not know either

The strangest things outside my window haunt

Not only me.

I twitch and shudder

Whenever I see you in ire, or when you leave me

Weeks at a time—

An abysmal feeling seeps through

And I wonder if my sanity is intact

Or if it was ever there before.

And now I lay me down to sleep

On your shoulder's edge—

I still wonder of tomorrow's causes

And what feelings the strangers would bring

To my homestead—

I know I am afraid, yet still—

The look in your eyes in what dangerous intoxications

Sends me reeling in the most capricious way

Under some exotic sensation

So far—

And still I wonder at night if you know me.
